I can definitely relate to the posts here. Exercise serves as a foundation to almost everything positive in my life. Without it, I have noticed a domino effect take place where it negatively affects my sleep habits, diet, hygiene, mood, and cleanliness. My discipline then dies, followed by any motivation to do anything. Losing track of my life goals, the cognitive distortions and self-loathing follow suit and I then have to exert a lot of energy to get myself out of that hole. Yikes!
